Shipping Containers for Sale

We have an excellent line-up of quality new and used shipping containers for sale in Wellington. Every unit is built to strict international specs. Whether for export space, extra on-site storage, or a blank shell for a custom fit-out, we have the box for the job. Pick anything from a compact 10ft (3m) container up to a heavy-duty 40ft (12.2m) unit. We also have side opening, refrigerated, double-door, and other specialised options available.

Shipping Container Hire

We provide reliable short- and long-term shipping container hire in Wellington. Each unit is weather-tight, pest-proof, and able to withstand earthquakes. Our team delivers directly to your site. Choose from compact 10ft containers to spacious 40ft units, or anything in between. We also supply specialised hire options, such as side opening and double-door models. If the exact box you need isn’t on site, we can source it for you through our national network.

Self-storage

In Wellington, Lower Hutt is our main hub with the full service line-up, including self-storage. Think of Upper Hutt as our extra self-storage yard. It’s a separate, gated depot with clean, dry, vermin-proof lock-up containers from 15.9 m³ to 37.3 m³. All you have to do is drive in, load your container, lock it, and you’re done. Need sales, hire, or modifications? Head to Lower Hutt. Need straightforward extra storage? Upper Hutt is the one.

Modifications

We take care of container modifications in Wellington from concept to handover. Our Korokoro facility has the experience and know-how to turn standard boxes into pop-up cafés, mobile offices, workshop pods, or whatever you have in mind. Our end-to-end process takes the stress out of your conversion, ensuring it works perfectly from day one and ticks all the aesthetic boxes, too.

Onsite empty/full container storage

Boxman offers secure in-depot container storage at our Wellington Korokoro yard, whether it’s your container or one you’ve hired from us. Drop it off full or empty, or we can coordinate transport if you need a hand. When you’re ready, we’ll bring it forward for collection or arrange delivery back to site. Capacity in Wellington is limited and containers are stacked, so access is by prior notice during depot hours. This isn’t walk-up self-storage. Give us a heads-up, and we’ll have your container ready when you need it. If you’d like to learn more or arrange storage for your container, get in touch with our team today.

About Boxman Wellington

Our Wellington operation runs out of two depots. Our main yard in Korokoro, Lower Hutt, is on Pito-One Road, just a ten-minute drive from CentrePort and within easy reach of State Highway 2. This location keeps trucks close to road, rail, and port links, fueling efficient container moves through the lower North Island. Our second Wellington site in Upper Hutt is home to a secondary self-storage facility.

The Korokoro depot holds sales stock, hire units, modification bays, and onsite empty or full shipping container storage and self-storage on a single lot. Its wide driveways and generous space make it a great fit for large-scale customers as well as short-term projects.

Wellington’s creative sector often turns to us for specialised builds. Acrobats, artists, and festival organisers have used our modified containers as studios, ticket booths, and even performance spaces. We also supply freight, construction, and logistics businesses across Wellington, Palmerston North, and the wider lower North Island.

Ample, free on-site parking, friendly local staff who have a wealth of knowledge of the shipping container industry, and the reach of our wider network make Boxman Wellington the region’s trusted full-service container centre.
